This is the end, this is the last time,
|
Take what you want, why wait a lifetime?
|
Why wait till tomorrow when you can just take it today,
|
And it's not far away.
|
|
Live all your life according to a plan.
|
Live by the rules the best way you can.
|
So the system that fed you and bred you can throw you away,
|
And it's not far away,
|
Not far away.
|
|
Oh, oh.
|
The system that fed you and bred you can throw you away,
|
And it's not far away,
|
Not far away,
|
Not far away,
|
Not far away,
|
|
Oh, oh.
|
The system that breeds[?] you and feeds you will through you away.
|
And it's not far away,
|
Not far away.
|
|
Oh, oh.
|
Total chaos, total destruction.
|
(Not far away, not far away.)
|
Social collapse, moral corruption.
|
(Not far away, not far away.)
|
|
I feel it in my bones, it gets closer each day.
|
The future is here, and it won't go away.
|
|
They're gonna segregate the people,
|
They're gonna put you in your place.
|
And no one's gonna listen when you try to plead your case.
|
And those who think they are immune will get slapped in the face.
|
|
Chaos will rule,
|
No one will be safe,
|
The ending is near,
|
And it's not far away.
|
|
The future is here and it's ours to dictate,
|
The ending is closer so why hesitate,
|
Oh, oh.
|
|
The ending is near, and it's not far away.
